Texans Won't Trade Deshaun Watson Before Deadline

Oct 31, 2021 8:27 AM

The Houston Texans are planning on keeping Deshaun Watson past the NFL trade deadline and will reopen discussions in the offseason.

Nick Caserio has been unwavering in his stance and determination to get full value for Watson and, to date, has been unwilling to trade him for anything less than what he believes Watson is worth.

Cal McNair would prefer the Texans trade Watson in order to move on from the situation.

The Texans and Miami Dolphins have had trade discussions at various points, and Miami has been in the driver's seat with Watson's desire to play, most of all, for Miami.

The Dolphins prefer Watson's legal situation be resolved before a trade.

Panthers Won't Pursue Trade For Deshaun Watson

Watson has only waived his no trade clause for the Miami Dolphins and the framework of a deal has been agreed upon.

The Panthers traded for Sam Darnold this past offseason, who has struggled over the past few weeks.

Dolphins, Texans Have Agreed To Framework Of Deshaun Watson Deal

Oct 27, 2021 11:00 PM

The Miami Dolphins and Houston Texans have agreed to the compensation involved in a Deshaun Watson trade, according to a report.

The trade has been approved by Dolphins owner Stephen Ross, but the sticking point is that he wants the quarterback's legal issues resolved before it's executed.

The only realistic way for that to occur prior to the Nov. 2 trade deadline would be if Watson settled his 22 civil suits.

Roger Goodell: NFL Still Gathering Info On Deshaun Watson Lawsuits

Oct 26, 2021 8:59 PM

Roger Goodell said Tuesday at the league owners meetings that the NFL doesn't yet have enough information about the 22 civil lawsuits that have been filed against Deshaun Watson for inappropriate sexual behavior to make a decision on potential discipline, and that the information they do have is not enough to convince the league to place Watson on the commissioner's exempt list.

"Obviously, the police have been investigating, and we don't have access to all of that information at this point in time," Goodell said. "We pride ourselves on not interfering in that and in being as cooperative as we can in order to get all the facts. I think that process is still ongoing."

Watson has been showing up at the team facility every day since the start of training camp, but the team has been content to leave him on the inactive list for each of its seven regular-season games so far.

Deshaun Watson Open To Trade Beyond Dolphins As Panthers Emerge

Oct 25, 2021 10:24 AM

Deshaun Watson is willing to consider waiving his no-trade clause for multiple teams as the trade deadline approaches.

The Miami Dolphins have been the team most strongly linked to Watson for months, but the Carolina Panthers have now emerged as another candidate. The Panthers traded second-, fourth- and sixth-round draft picks to the New York Jets this past April for Sam Darnold, who has struggled badly in recent weeks.

The Dolphins don't want to bid against themselves for Watson. Tua Tagovailoa almost certainly would be traded as part of Miami's package to the Houston Texans. 

Watson initially requested a trade from the Texans this past January, but his NFL future is uncertain as he faces nearly two dozen 22 civil lawsuits alleging sexual assault and inappropriate behavior.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have no interest in trading Ronald Jones, according to Bruce Arians.

Speculation about Jones' status on the team has arisen as the November 2 deadline approaches.

"No, not at all," Arians said when asked about trading Jones. "It's a long season, and just that scenario that happened last year, and still with COVID -- you can't have enough good players."
